Battlestar Galactica

Through the miracle that is the internet, I finished watching, the all too short Battlestar Galactica Series. It was being shown in England on SkyOne.hackz dota

Only 13 episodes this first season. I hope we get more. Soon!!hackz dota

I am watching them again as they show up on my PVR.
This is an outstanding series. Watch it now!!!hackz dota

24 - Episode 5

This post may contain spoilers.hackz dota

This is the first season of 24 that I have watched (I plan to go back and watch season 1 - 3), and I am very impressed.hackz dota

It is great to have a show with real characters that make tough, real world decisions. Both good & bad guys make the hard, but correct decisions. When Jack robbed the store, when they killed the girl, when the guy martyred himself & when they broke the gas pipe. The were decisions they did not want to make but the knew they had no choice and made them.hackz dota

I am still amazed how much can happen in one hour, but it does not distract from the show.hackz dota

One of the most appealing things is the pace of this show, there is no wasted time, if it happens, it is to move the story forward.hackz dota

At least I don't need much sleep.hackz dota

Watch this show.hackz dota

24

I was getting tired of hearing people talk about 24, a show I had never watched.hackz dota

I thought the premise was strange and was not a big Kiefer Sutherland fan.hackz dota

I DVRed the first 4 episodes of this season, season 4.hackz dota

I am pretty impressed, I have added this show to my watch list. (like I need to watch more TV)hackz dota

The writing is nice and tight. Good strong characters that seem to have fully fleshed out backrounds. It has high production & direction values.hackz dota

Although it is truely amazing what can happen in 1 hour.hackz dota

I couldn't believe it when he shot the guy in the leg. I almost jumped off the couch!!!hackz dota

Lost

I hope you have all been watching the TV show Lost.hackz dota

It is IMHO, one of the two best dramas on TV today. It has excellent writing & production. An amazing ensemble cast that has eye candy for both men and women.
The male lead is Matthew Fox (Jack), the female lead is Evangeline Lilly(Kate)hackz dota

The head up a group of people stranded on an island in the middle of nowhere after a plane crash. I was very surprised this show turned out to be as good as it is.hackz dota

Tune in, you will enjoy it.hackz dota

My first DVR experience

After a very long time of listening to people tell me I need a DVR, SBC made me a deal I could not refuse.hackz dota

Part of the package is DISH network.hackz dota

I have the 522 reciever/DVR. It has two tuners & can tape two shows at once, or tape one while you watch another.hackz dota

So, I set it up to record all of our shows. Last night it taped Smallville, Lost & Alias. hackz dota

I started watching lost after it was over on one TV, hit stop & picked up where I left off on a different TV. Very cool.hackz dota

I look forward to watching this weekend's Packer game with the ability to pause & rewind.hackz dota
